Listen to our Heart

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary - Steve Jobs

This quotation of the late Steve Jobs really inspires me. Sometimes, we are too weak. We don’t have self-confidence. We often let people’s opinions drown out our own inner voice and it makes us don’t have the courage to follow our intuition and what our heart says.

For example, we’ve had planning ‘A’ and decided to do that planning. We know it’s gonna be great. We’re very sure about it. But, suddenly, when we communicate our planning to others, they do not agree with us. All of them have their own different opinion but the essence is the same: They are insulting your planning and assume that you’re crazy and too ambitious! And as the impact, you are not confident anymore and (it’s the worst!) you agree with them, you think you’re too ambitious and your planning is such a crazy planning.

It’s horrible. Please, just be yourself! Everybody in this world has their own opinion (which is different from one another), so do you!

Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”

Oprah said, "The only courage you ever need is the courage to live the life of your dreams."
